    Only one I was 100% sure of.... And if that's Finland I'm having bad feelings about one of the later answers I may have given :pac:

    I think I know which one you're referring to. It's the only one that had me stumped. But, I only swotted up on the 193 UN states, those that count in a game of Pointless.

    Surely the obvious European answer won’t score low for two rounds in a row, will it?

    Yes, yes it will, as Portugal ends up being the best answer in this round. Very unlucky for the people who came up with good answers - just not good Peehs answers!

    Well I'm thinking of what was actually now likely to be Denmark, but I haven't a breeze, and I can't remember if I went with it, so I'll just have to wait and see! :D

    Pickarooney usurps Barna at the top of the table by one point. Can they maintain their lead for the rest of the game, or have the peaked too early?

    I’m definitely sensing a theme developing here, as the majority of people opt for the other European country, while the much more obvious Germany scores the same as Antigua and Barbuda

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,514 ✭✭✭aaronjennings


    Another hard round (blame the randomiser, not me), as it seems most people decided it was better to stick with the safe European answer than risk getting it wrong. Last-minute signer-upper Leg End Reject lands a great answer with Vanuatu

    The top two continue their tit-for-tat battle at the summit, with Pickarooney once again claiming sole ownership of first place. But can they stave off the contenders behind them?

    I couldn't think of where it was when I was answering, but when I saw the flags just now before the answers I knew it immediately. Doh!

    Is it bad I thought the Afghanistan flag was this?

    A third tricky round, and a third round where the relatively safe European answer Sheeps

    Meanwhile, our leader hits a disastrous incorrect answer - right colours, wrong emblem

    I was hoping more people would fall for the Yemen/Egypt trap
